The Washington CPA Foundation is accepting applications for its 2023 grant program. This will be the sixth award cycle for the Washington CPA Foundation grant program, which aims to improve the diversity of the CPA pipeline in Washington. The Foundation intends to provide up to $30,000 in awards this year to organizations and programs that meet the following criteria:

  • Organization or program’s target group is students, high school to early college.
  • The goal is to increase underrepresented populations in the field of accounting.
  • Programs will be evaluated both on quality of the interaction and quantity of students reached.
  • Programs or events can be existing or new.

If you know a school or non-profit organization that may be a fit for this grant, please send them to wscpa.org/grant to find our grant application and important information about applying. Applications are due December 1, 2022.

To learn more about previous grant awards and recipients please reach out to me at manderson@wscpa.org.

Monette Anderson, CAE, is the Executive Director of the Washington CPA Foundation and WSCPA Director of Member Services.
